When Elizabeth turned and sneaked a peek at Bella’s phone, she saw the email was from Stella. Her eyes narrowed slightly.
She let go of Bella and stood up.
Bella opened the email and read it carefully. At this time, Elizabeth saw the wedding photo at the bottom of the email.
Her eyes narrowed. Jealousy and anger surged in her heart again.
But she did her best to remain calm. She pretended to be relaxed and said, “Stella and Matthew are getting married? You’re invited to their wedding. Can you take me with you?”
Elizabeth’s tone remained unchanged.
But Bella’s mouth tensed, and a small frown creased her forehead.

Memories of Elizabeth’s past actions lingered, leaving her hesitant.
She worried that Elizabeth’s return to Seamarsh might reignite her feelings for Matthew, leading to unnecessary complications.
Elizabeth understood Bella’s hesitation instantly. As Bella’s eyes blinked and tears welled up, she pleaded, “Mom, I truly realize my mistake. Can’t you trust me? ALL I ask is to witness the man I once adored getting married. Can’t you grant me this simple wish?”
Bella stayed silent, her troubled expression speaking volumes.
“Mom…” Elizabeth repeated, trying to reassure her. “I’ve moved on from Matthew. And I owe Stella an apology. You wouldn’t want your daughter to avoid facing her mistakes, would you?”
Bella softened at Elizabeth’s heartfelt words. “Alright. I’ll take you with me.”
“Thank you, Mom.” Elizabeth’s face lit up as she hugged Bella gratefully.
Bella smiled gently but added a reminder. “Just promise me you’ll be good this time and won’t cause any more trouble, okay?”
“I promise!” Elizabeth agreed earnestly. “I’ll head out now. Get some rest.”
With that, she turned away, her smile fading, replaced by a steely determination reflected in her eyes.
After shutting the door, Elizabeth leaned back against it, her face clouding over with worry.

Last time in Seamarsh, she couldn’t handle Stella, but now, she was determined to crush her into the dirt and make everyone hate her.
After Elizabeth left, Bella didn’t just go straight back to sleep.
She took another peek at the wedding picture Stella had sent and studied it closely. She closed the email before to keep Elizabeth from getting upset.
In the picture, Stella wore a joyful smile. Her wedding dress, while plain, complemented her figure beautifully.
Elizabeth said Stella wasn’t a good person. But Bella felt a strange sense of connection and fondness for Stella since their first accidental encounter, as if they had known each other for ages.
Bella gazed at the photo, struggling to remember, but her headache intensified. A blurry image flashed in her mind as if someone was calling her.
